8 mm diameter half rope with Duratec Dry treatment for multi-pitch climbing and mountaineering
The RUMBA 8 mm half rope offers great versatility in multi-pitch climbing, mountaineering, and ice climbing. It has a reinforced sheath for great durability, and also features Duratec Dry water repellent treatment for enhanced performance under any conditions. Excellent grip and great handling make for easier manipulation.
- Multipurpose rope for multi-pitch climbing and mountaineering:
- Duratec Dry treatment for use in rock, mixed, snow, or ice environments: water repellent treatment makes the rope more resistant to water, dirt, and abrasion; good handling, grip, and other characteristics are retained longer in cold, wet conditions
- Two ropes can be clipped individually or together, depending on terrain or rope drag management
- Durable and easy to grip:
- Excellent balance of diameter, weight, and bulk
- 40-carrier grip for better control
- Duratec Dry treatment extends the life of the rope
- UltraSonic Finish: the core and sheath are bonded together at the rope ends by an UltraSonic process, which provides greater durability and helps avoid frayed ends
- Convenient:
- Middle Mark: indicates the middle of the rope to facilitate maneuvers
- EverFlex treatment: specific thermal treatment stabilizes core strands and improves consistency, providing excellent grip and consistent handling over time
- ClimbReady Coil: special coil makes the rope ready to use, helps avoid initial uncoiling mistakes, and increases longevity
- Our Duratec Dry rope treatment is free from intentionally added PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances), to reduce the use of substances known to be harmful to health and the environment
